Some of Our Best Friends....

Economist graph compiled from Gallup data.
Three reasons why same-sex marriage is rapidly gaining recognition throughout the United States[bold added]:
One reason is demographic replacement: the deaths of anti-gay traditionalists and the emergence of a generation that grew up accepting homosexuality as a normal human variation. Their nonchalance is founded upon broadening acceptance of the proposition that homosexuality, like heterosexuality, is generally innate and not inherently harmful. Yet a third reason, underlying both of the others, is that sexual minorities have emerged from the shadows into full public view.
Familiarity sometimes breeds acceptance, not contempt.
